How to Create an API Token

The Vamp API requires a Bearer token in the Authorization header for every API request. You can generate an API token and use it as a Bearer token.

Authorization: Bearer <api-token>

API Token Settings

Next, select the Permissions you would like the token to have.

Permissions are formatted as resource:ability . For example, guide:read allows the token to read Guides.

API tokens are tied to your Vamp account. Your ability to perform certain actions may be limited by your Team role permissions in addition to the permissions you set on the token itself.

Select the Create button to generate the token.

Copy the Token

An API Token popup will be displayed.

Select the token with your cursor and copy it before you close the popup.

Store the API token in a secure place. For your security, the token will not be displayed again after you close the popup.

Now you can use the API Token when submitting API requests.
